Don't know if this bug has been talked about. If I have an event set on calendar and try to edit it, the GMT time will automatically change 1. For example, my time is GMT-5:00, if I go to an event and edit it, the time will automatically change to GMT-4:00.

Not a big deal though, since I notified it, I pay more attention. And I believe fixing it should not be a big problem.
[Captivate Android Development] Archpope:
I installed this out of desperation because EVERY Gingerbread ROM I had tried before this had the same problem. The phone would randomly freeze. I never did figure out any kind of pattern or usage. Sometimes it would freeze right after a reboot, sometimes it would take 2 days. It was very frustrating.

I was skeptical about this version of ICS, since it didn't wipe the SD card. However, after three weeks, with only one or two restarts, I have not had a single freeze. There have been a couple of times where it's lagged for close to 30-60 seconds, but it ALWAYS recovered. Lag > having to pull the battery daily. Not sure if it's the nature of ICS or the work of whoever cooked up this ROM, but well done!

D is a very good chef. Can't go wrong with this rom or by chipping in a donation to the Dev
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
I hope "D" isn't referring to me, but if it is I want to clear some things up... 1. I'm not a chef, I think that is a stupid term to be honest, but a chef means you take something and edit it. We compile our ROMs. 2. I'm not very good at anything, not without the team. We are all responsible for this ROM and selecting one person as the most important is just silly, because that's not how we see it.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
D was supposed to say Devs. And by chef I meant in correlation to the food world. In the sense that TeamICSSGS like a food chef takes raw ingredients (google source code and all that other stuff I don't understand) and combine it together to create (cook) a wonderful masterpiece. In this case, the ICSSGS Rom.

It was by no means meant to be derogatory so I apologize if it was taken in that context.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
I'm getting the Low Space notification on top and yes i know there's a DataFix on the OP but that's not why am posting this. The thing is that all this low space happened when i started testing different modems, because i had to clear cache/dalvik (recommended) and every time i cleared that on recovery i got 3 lines of text saying something like E:\ blah blah path not found and something about Dalvik cleared. I would gladly post a log for that but i couldn't find it once i rebooted (where are those stored, i tried searching for .log files but no luck with anyone relevant to recovery). When it boots after the cache/dalvik being cleared i get a System Update popup saying something about restoring or updating Apps. I could manually copy the text lines from recovery if anyone wants to take a look. So my question is could it be that by doing this cache/dalvik clear the system is like duplicating something on the /datadata folder or something like that? Because i have 1.4 GB free on Internal data and only 17 MB on Int. app partition (/datadata)

Any information about this topic would be gladly appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
No its not duplicating its just creating it again since you cleared your cache.

You will always get the Updating apps under ICS. ICS will always optimize your new apps after a reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Ok i managed to get the log from the recovery. Heres the text i get when i try to wipe cache/dalvik

-- Wiping cache and dalvik cache...

Formatting /cache...

E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]

rm: can't remove '/cache/dalvik-cache': No such file or directory

rm: can't remove '/sd-ext/dalvik-cache': No such file or directory

Dalvik Cache wipe complete.

Is that normal?

EDIT: Yes I'm an idiot, you can't clear cache/dalvik if you don't have an external SD. Sorry about that :p
[Captivate Android Development] beetmonger:
Just wanted to say a quick thanks to Team ICSSGS for this. First of all, world's easiest install. Second, everything just works. I've been running the latest version for about a week and so far it's been silky smooth and reliable. The only hiccup was getting the wifi to work but I got that sorted by pulling the SIM card after the install. This has breathed new life into my Captivate. :D
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
Since installing datfix.zip I have had lag. I thought running it again undoes the change but I get an error when trying to run it again.

I'm having the same issue. Flashed 4.2 on top and tried to run datafix but got the same error, i don't want to do a full wipe so i think i'll just deal with the delay for now until the new RC comes out... :(
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
With latest test kernel (version ending 207), I am facing issues with power button. A day after install, power button completely dead. After couple of reboots, it started working with no additional steps. Again after a week, I am facing similar issue.

Issue is starting in below symptoms

a) Pressing power button, power off window pops up. This happens couple of times.

b) Pressing power button, responds only some times.

c) Power button will be completely dead.

Not sure if the issue is with test kernel or phone. Any one any idea?
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
I would try another kernel and see if the issue persists. Do you have trouble turning it on?
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Yes. For now, I have removed lock and using vol button to wake up screen.

I'm going to try different kernel and see...
[Captivate Android Development] stew1411:
Does this rom use pdu or text for smsc?
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Since I couldn't install different kernel, I tried doing factory reset and re-installing 4.2 again. Now, I lost IMEI on my phone. I faced this problem when moving to RC 4.*. At the time, I went to stock and flashed 4.2. Not sure if this is an unique problem to my phone or universal.

For now, I will try going back to stock and coming to 4.2. I will upgrade to RC 5 when it is here :D

Hope this IMEI problem is not going to repeat.....

I did and it saved me today..
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
From the Status 7 error posts i read the problem solved when you installed RC 2.2 full/wipe and then the latest release which was RC 3 at that moment or install Nushor's kernel. I couln't find neither hte kerner nor the RC 2.2 on hte OP page. So what am i suppose to do? Does a full wipe/factory reset re-flash RC4.2 going to fix this stupid Datafix lag im having?
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
You should be able to clean up your /data/data directory (delete some stuff to lower the amount of storage it is using) and flash the fixer again. Also check to make sure /datadata is empty, if its not then clear it out.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
First thanks for the response, then i cleared /datadata even formatted on CWM and i got the same result (i only have a Lots+Found empty folder that can't be erased there). Also tried clearing some space in /data/data and i could reduced it to 450MB according to RootExplorer but the Status 7 error keeps popping out. Any other suggestions?

Is there a place to download the Platypus kernel for Captivate? I see that you use it in your ROM. I used it with gingerbread roms but have not seen it for ICS.

[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
finally gets his 8th post and can post in development threads and this is what he posts!?!

ICSSGS is AOSP build. google what AOSP is. and find out why added features wont be added. then read the rules of the development forum. google developers if you need.

then realize why your 5 words and 4 punctuations can cause so much facepalm.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
You know AOSP doesn't mean that. AOKP is AOSP same as CM9, SLIM, MIUI. ICSSGS does give a "stock" as what google intended.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
You do know that CM9 and AOKP are not pure AOSP. They are built off of it but not pure AOSP. Like CM9 Changes the coding alot from what Google had intended and made to work in ways that Google had not intended. MIUI isnt even close as its closed source.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I know but its still a AOSP. ;P Not picking a fight, was just stating it.

Edit: MIUI isn't lol "closed" goes against AOSP .
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
No not really. Its like different distros of Linux (actually that's what is IS). Even though they are built from the same Linux kernel, that doesnt make them the same. CM9 and AOKP are by no means AOSP. They are separate distros. You might could say that CM9 and AOKP are custom built AOSP rooms, and compare them to, say, Linux Mint. Mint is just a modded version of Ubuntu, but that doesn't mean its Ubuntu. That means it pulls from the same source as Ubuntu but its not Ubuntu.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Yes everyone knows MIUI is closed source.If their so called source code release is not complete without some closed source stuff that they released under the Apache license.

But your right this is not about picking a fight. It is simple. Only pure AOSP can be considered an AOSP rom. All the other are built off of it with major changes to the base coding. Changing it from what google wanted
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
built off but customized.

the goal of ICSSGS is to be pure AOSP. (as close as possible to get everything working)

the goal is to be exactly as google intended... but rooted. basically consider pure AOSP "google stock".

the other ICS roms are AOSP variants and choose to build upon and change from "google stock", none of them call themselves AOSP, but say that they build upon its code, as is required of them to do by the GNU/GPL
[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
The IMEI problem is a strange bug. I think I fixed it but it seems impossible to find a steady cause. It doesn't make sense, really. :(
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
I got my efs backup & used it.... :)
[Captivate Android Development] Archpope:
OK, really minor issue here, and not the devs' fault at all. The battery icon is not terribly accurate. Well, it's probably as accurate as an icon all of eight pixels high can be. I'd like to replace it with some kind of digital readout. I found that someone tried the CM9 digital battery mod and it worked, but that one has been pulled. Will other CM9 battery mods work?

Also, as of today, total uptime 745 hours! That's more than a month without having to reboot. I've had to close a couple laggy apps about once a week, but this is easily the most stable ROM I've used.

[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Hey i know this problem i'm about to describe is like way to general and too many thing could be causing it but i'll just ask. Has anyone encountered problems while using data on an every day basis?

I'm having bad reception sometimes, it goes from 3G to E (i have set it to connect to UMTS only) or just shuts down the connection like if it was resetting itself and then comes back. I have already tried like 6 different modems which are suppose to work fine on my zone and i had the same result.
[Captivate Android Development] snoboarder071:
Well it had been awhile but I was finally plagued by the low space/storage warning/notification again. This fix did the trick for me though!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1541942

I never tried the fix provided at the google code page for this rom due to the reports of slow down, so I can't really attest to this one being any better or worse. Could do exactly the same thing for all I know :D

Doesn't seem like it's slowed me down any. Oh and I'm on Glitch v14 b6. I'm guessing that's an important detail. Just wanted to throw it out there for people to try, and I apologize if it's already been discussed. I hope it helps!
[Captivate Android Development] adamwsh:
I have this ROM installed on my Captivate. If I wanted to go back to the latest official AT&T release (which I believe is 2.3.5) how would I go about doing that?
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
I used the same fix, but not the cwm flashable. I'm quite sure it did the same thing though, and I'll add that I also didn't notice any slowdown. I wasn't on glitch.

However I didn't notice the bit on TIBU and screwed up all of my backups, so I just wanted to add that people need to make sure they read the line about Titanium and change the appropriate setting.

Otherwise it should work great.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
The safest way you can go back to stock is ODIN i think. You should really try searching on the forum or just look for the posts as i'm sure there's a sticky with this information.

If you didn't know how to do that i wouldn't have recommended you to flash this ROM or any other as some basic knowledge about this things could get you out of troubles without bothering people or waiting for an answer. Don't get me wrong, i'm just suggesting you to read a little before asking something this basic.

Here is what I did. I am on Rogers in Canada, logically the process should remain remain the same for whatever stock you need.

1. Download the stock ROM image that your phone came with.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1300843

2. Take the phone into download mode. You can use 3-button combo or abd for this.

3. Flash the image. Then you can update to latest version using Kies.

Why do you want to go back anyways? This Rom is so much better than 2.3.5

All the best.

I keep getting "Android OS" hogging my battery and draining it quickly. I've now been on battery for 3h 14m and I'm already at 49%. Android OS is at 46% and when I select it, it says "CPU total" is only 7m 4s but "Keep awake" is 2h 59m. What might be causing that?

** Edit: Ended up with 6h 1m before the phone shut itself off with no battery left. I took a screen shot of the battery graph and it pretty much is a 45 degree slant all day long. You can even see the two brief reboots I tried right in the middle of the time frame. Android OS ended up being 42%. (Keep awake for it was 5h 14m)
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
There's a bug with the "Android OS" percentage, you can search the forum. It shows a higher amount than it should so don't pay attention to that though i never had it more than 30% or so, you can check for background processes or just reboot the phone and see if that stops the battery drain.

Volume of system sounds

Thanks for this *amazing* rom! It has breathed new life into my Captivate!

The only problem I have with it is that the system sounds (e.g. clicks when I launch an app) are very low. There is no way to set them in ICS Settings (I think), but even using an app like Volume Control, the System level appears to be high even though it is barely audible in practice, even at high overall volume.

Again, thanks for your hard work!

[Captivate Android Development] LongLiveCappy92:
I had the same problems with datafix and eventually just ended up reflashing. However I figured out that if you clear data from some apps, such as your browser, under "manage apps" the low space notification goes away.
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Not that i want to rain on your parade but this will only do for a short time. If you download/update more apps the error will come back until you apply the fix...... then the lag begins.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
You mean reflash with full wipe? Because i tried reflashing before and it didn't work for me, i still have the Datafix applied
[Captivate Android Development] LongLiveCappy92:
silvertag- I've been going strong for over a month now with no issues. If I ever had the problem again, it seems like its the browser data that pushes me over, so I would just clear that again.

soumian- I did do a full wipe. With everything backed up to Google and I use Titanium Backup, its really not that much of a hastle
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
I was about to do that but i thought that the next release was going live shortly so i waited and every day it passes i regret that choice :P But is good to know that a full wipe does clear this issue with the DataFix.zip so thanks for clearing that :)
